Helicopter Without Tracking System Involved in River Crash.

"The technology used to keep a close eye on military choppers was not working during the crash in the Potomac River. Why did this happen? " Every year, Army helicopters have to do training exercises. This includes using tracking technology so that air traffic management can track them. This helps keep the skies safe. Last week, things went horribly wrong. A Blackhawk helicopter crashed into a passenger jet. 67 people were killed. The sad thing is, the tracking technology on the helicopter was not turned on. This could have made a big difference. However, the people on the F. A. F. N. T. S. B were not asked to go under oath. So, they kept their lips sealed about the details of what happened. Now, all the details aren't clear yet. Multiple Senators are trying to find the answers and settle the questions. Every little detail and piece of the wreckage is could be important, so they'll look into it. The senators are working closely with the F. A. A. N. T. S. B to collect all the evidence. The helicopter is still at the bottom of the river. Unfortunately, someone made a huge blunder, but who was at fault? The 1993 crash of a Bell 412 over the Potomac River looked similar. As millions of people watched, the rescue was a struggle as they tried to help all the survivors. That helicopter had a working tracking system that day. Conclusion drawn were the importance of training and system checks. Potomac river is a crucial area for aviation. If so many people died, it means something serious should be done to improve safety. The main point is that the tracking device did not work. It was a big mistake to fly without it. Something more must be done to keep accidents like this from happening again. Senator called the whole thing ''escalating problem''. They said something very bad happened. However, they are tight-fisted about the details. A big problem for the Army is training. Is it the pilot's fault or the commanders? The Navy has been doing similar training for a long time. They say it's fine to do that, but did they ask any hard questions? Most likely, the Blackhawk had a problem with the tracking system.
